Summer doesn’t arrive for another month (heck, at this pace, we’re wondering if it’s going to show up at all). But with some of your favourite shows wrapping up for the year, it’s time to start thinking about which series you’re going to want to binge watch when the weather (maybe, hopefully) starts to warm up.

If you’re a fan of the small screen, you already know there’s no quiet time when it comes to television, and the days between now and Labour Day will prove to be no exception.

Just this month alone, Renee Zellweger stars in Netflix’s new social thriller What/If.

In June, fans of Big Little Lies get to see what happens next when the ladies of Monterey return for season two.

By the time the pools are open in July, it will be summer in Hawkins, Ind., as Stranger Things returns for its third season, while The Amazing Race Canada will be back for another whirlwind trip across the country for its seventh season.

And, in August, Fox’s Beverly Hills, 90210 will get a revival of sorts with BH90210.

But we know you won’t have time to sit indoors and watch TV all summer long, so we’ve selected the series we think are worth checking out over the next few months.

Blood & Treasure — May 21 (Global, CBS) The globe-trotting show follows a brilliant antiquities expert (Sleepy Hollow’s Matt Barr) and a cunning art thief (The Brave’s Sofia Pernas) as they team up to track a ruthless terrorist who funds his attacks through stolen treasure.

The Amazing Race Canada— July (CTV) Canada’s most popular summer series is back for its seventh season and unlike previous editions, this year will see the return of one popular team who came close, but failed to win it all. London’s Jet Black and Dave Schram, who appeared on the inaugural season, will return alongside a slate of brand-new racers. “We won’t let Canada down,” Jet promised in an interview with the Sun. As for what fans of the show can expect, host Jon Montgomery says it’s pretty simple: “More amazingness.”

Stranger Things — July 4 (Netflix) “One summer can change everything,” or so goes the logline for the spooky third season of Stranger Things. The season’s eight episodes are finding inspiration in the unlikeliest of places — Chevy Chase’s 1985 comedy Fletch. “The Duffers are so specific each year with the movies,” series star David Harbour told Variety of the show’s creators, Matt and Ross Duffer. “And Fletch is one movie we get to play around and have some fun with this season.” In an interview with the Sun last month, Harbour promised fans will still get the monsters and scares, but there will be a lightness to it all. “I’m calling it, ‘The summer of love,’” he said. “I can’t say what it is — and I wouldn’t want to — but there’s a huge surprise. A couple of huge surprises, which you’ll enjoy.”

Nearly 20 years after the original aired, stars Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling, Shannen Doherty and Jason Priestley return to play “heightened” versions of themselves as they reunite and plot a 90210 revival. “The show is comedic drama, very, very heavy on the comedy side. It’s a scripted, fake reality show that follows Jason Priestly and Ian Ziering and Jennie Garth, all of us trying to get a reboot of Beverly Hills 90210 made, and what that entails,” Priestley says. “Very much like Episodes. A little bit of Arrested Development thrown in there. A little bit of Curb Your Enthusiasm thrown in there. But very much in the vein of those shows.”

Preacher— Aug. 8 (AMC) Based on the graphic novels by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, the fourth and final season will follow the continuing adventures of Texas preacher Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper), his ex-girlfriend Tulip (Ruth Negga) and a fangless vampire named Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun) in their search for God.
